Puzzle Pirates Forums

Most players of puzzle pirates spend half their life on these forums. Making political maneuvers and fiery tarting in Parley, selling things in the Bazaar, running contests in Events, making art and music in Mariner's Muse, and picking pointless, silly fights in Shore Leave. If it's not an argument about the legitimacy of an island transfer, it's a complaint about how poker ruined the game and pillaging is a dead art. For that, we salute you Puzzle Pirates forums. Waster of time, occupier of dead space, sucker of life, best thing to ever happen to a pirate.

"If you're not speaking as the majority, you can expect to be disparaged or chastized for having a differing opinion." Welcome to the real world, MuffBeard.

Okay, no need to continue that train of conversation for all the people out there who don't care, though.

Or, in other words Muffbeard (dammit, why do two Muffs have to be in the same place as once), "I woz banned, so I h8 them".

The forums are awesome and actually extremely well run compared to some other ones I've seen on MMORPG's. It has nothing to do with speaking as the majority but if every single one of your posts is a hypocritical rant against everything and everyone or any basic institution of the game, people aren't gonna like you.

The forums there are a joke. If you're not speaking as the majority, you can expect to be disparaged or chastized for having a differing opinion.
The world of argumentive fallacy and ad hominem at it's juvenile worst.
Expect severe double standards in not only forum policy by the moderators but from the community itself. The juvenile and mob mentality of the posters doesn't translate into the game as most of the "forum regulars" have nothing invested in the game and, for the most part, aren't even active on the game itself.
If only the actions within the game were as active as the forum goers then the game would actually be attractive. But when the majority of the few and far between "game related" posts are about how the game is stagnant and how every new change just makes the game less piratey than advertised.
Expect a junior high school mentality and your typical e-penile contests.
In other words, not much to see there...move along.
